Alright guys, I'm in a bit of a bind. I don't normally buy books for my classes, but Ive run into a situation where I really need a book. Its final exams tomorrow and in all of my classes but one I'm doing just fine. This one class I basically need to get an A on this final exam and to do that I think i'll need to read teh chapters in the book. Problem is, they don't have them anymore on campus.

This is the only class Im worried about and if I can somehow manage to pull an A out of my ass I'll graduate and be done with school forever.

I'm willing to buy a copy of it to view online (assuming its not to crazy expensive) or go to a barnes and noble or something to study. Ive looked at all the major websites but can't seem to find a place I can view online or a local store that has a copy. If anyone can happen to find a place online I can view this book you'd be my freaking hero!!!

Who would have ever thought that you might actually need to study the material in a college course!? That kind of radical thinking is what gave us New Coke and the Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers! :p

Like I said, most of the classes I'm doing just fine in without the books. I can usually hack it by studying the material off the internet. This is the one class that Ive had a hard time doing that with.

How about the school library, don't they have one in the shelves?

Go to your local bookstore if you can, borrowing from friends is also a good plan. There might be a digital copy online, legitimate or otherwise. Google is your friend.

school libraries usually have copies of textbooks, i've never not found one there. sometimes they are held so you can't check them out though

So you waited until the day of the final to succumb to your need for the textbook? :confused:
